This bronze medal, created by Bon Ingenhousz in 1936, commemorates the 400th anniversary of the death of Desiderius Erasmus, a renowned humanist scholar. The medal features a profile portrait of Erasmus, wearing a cap and robe, with the inscription "DESIDERIUS ERASMUS ROTR[ODAMUS]" encircling his head. This small-scale piece is a testament to Ingenhousz's skill in medallic art and his dedication to honoring historical figures. The inscription and the realistic portrayal of Erasmus make this medal a valuable historical artifact.
